Our computing courses at Kingston University are designed to equip you with the skills you need to enter the fast-paced, highly competitive computing industry. We have seven labs with over 450 PC's and two complete labs which are fitted with state of the art Lenovo Y900 machines. These feature the Nvidia GTX 1080 graphics card, enabling you to work in virtual reality as easily as any classic games medium you may choose. Our new Centre for Augmented and Virtual Reality Environments (CAVE) gives you access to equipment such as virtual reality headsets that can transport the wearer into an immersive alternative environment and equipment that tracks eye movements and brain activity to monitor how much someone is enjoying playing a game. The CyberLab exists as its own contained network enabling you to safely examine and test viruses / malware and in some cases even make your own!

Most of our courses are accredited by the BCS, the Chartered Institute of IT. Kingston University is an educational partner of Sony through PlayStation First.
